i can't go back
i've lost that time
i must proceed
to cross the line
dot those i's
details matter
especially mine
this is where i drown my dreams
while floating idly by
no motivation
unincentivized
another failed vocation
another waste of time
reaching for relevance
plagued by the past
no stopping for directions
when sinking this fast
backwater rising
overflowing its banks
i can't help feeling
a certain angst
it's a flood of emotion
catching on like disease
bubbling up the surface
surging stream of release
the path not taken
is exactly what it seems
backwater rising
overflowing its banks
i can't help feeling
a certain angst
it's a flood of emotion
catching on like disease
bubbling up the surface
surging stream of release

Themself

she's afraid to come out, and she can't wait to leave
and he longs for the day when he can wear his heart there on his sleeve
they don't know which box to choose form the two on the machine
and there's no one that looks like him projected on the screen
let him be, let her be, let them be
let her be, let him be, let them be themself
he calls out the hate when he sees it
their friends get mad - can't you just get along?
she's out of the group left alone again
can't believe she's got no friends
knocked down for standing strong
he gets stares and no one cares, she's different
she's not the same, they won't use his name
the butt of a joke, not so innocent pokes, disappointed by his folks
she's depressed, and they just want to scream
let him be, let her be, let them be
let her be, let him be, let them be themself

I can tell from your smoke signals
They say you're a prick
Floating through the air and screening
Making me sick
Backyard burner
Backyard burner
Backyard
Backyard burner
Don't care about nobody
Backyard burner
Got no empathy

Nothing to see now
The coast is clear
The fire's died down
to smoke and mirrors
How did I get here?
Where is my voice?
How did I choose this
By making no choice?
Even an ocean of indecision
Sways one way or another
'Til it's crashed, 'til it's beached
And it gets pulled under
If I make waves, I'm rocking the boat
And if it's half full, it ain't gonna float
Best to stand by, time to assess
Avoid a decision made under duress
And every time
I'm weighing a choice
The pros and the cons
The truth and the noise
And who will it hurt
And who will be sore
And will it be quick
Or is it a chore
And if I'm unsure
How can I ignore?
The cost isn't clear
It's a little bit more

Testube Eureka Springs
Testube was formed by Jeff Danos in 1994. Approaching each new musical release as an experiment in sound, Jeff fuses atypical idm, industrial, glitch, and ambient textures into complex cohesive compositions...which is a fancy way of saying that he has a knack for making strange and experimental music somehow more palatable. ... more
